TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) Auto Accident
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a disruption of normal brain function caused by a blow, jolt, or sudden movement of the head and body. In an auto accident, the rapid movement of the head can cause a TBI even without direct impact. Common symptoms include headaches, dizziness, brain fog, memory and concentration problems, fatigue, sleep changes, and sensitivity to light or noise. Early evaluation and appropriate treatment are important, as some symptoms can persist and affect daily life long after an accident.

Auto accidents can affect far more than just your neck and back. TBI symptoms, spinal misalignments, muscle tension, and nerve irritation can continue affecting your mind and body long after an accident. A thorough evaluation can help identify injuries that may otherwise go unrecognized. If you’ve been injured in an auto accident, getting evaluated by Dr. Chris may be an important step toward getting back to the activities you enjoy.
